What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are a type of injectable used to treat collagen loss made up of soft, gel-like substances. One of the most common compounds used in dermal fillers is hyaluronic acid (HA), which is common in nourishing skin products. Here at the top aesthetic clinic in Lexington, dermal fillers are injected into the soft tissue at different depths to help fill in facial wrinkles, provide facial volume, and augment facial features.
Why are dermal fillers necessary?
Collagen loss is a natural, inevitable process, but we can use artificial means, like dermal fillers and lip fillers, to help combat this loss. We start losing collagen at age 28 at the rate of 1-2% a year. The goal of dermal fillers is to restore a smoother appearance of those areas that lose structure over time.
What can dermal fillers treat?
Dermal fillers are used to help diminish facial lines and restore volume and fullness to the face. Dermal fillers can be used to treat some of the same concerns that overlap with Botox injectables like wrinkles.
Are dermal fillers safe?
Many dermal fillers are FDA approved for cosmetic uses and many of the ingredients used in these fillers are absorbable and are broken down over time by the body. Some of these compounds include hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxyapatite, and poly-l-lactic acid (PLLA).
How long do dermal fillers last?
Dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to upwards of 2 years. Dermal fillers are temporary and are broken down by the body over time, which means some routine upkeep is necessary through additional injections.
